We have David 4 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 2: Farraki we blogging, Curiapolster and Jack tam who's the host 5 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 2: of Q and at Saturday mornings on z BE High Lads, 6 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,600 Speaker 2: Hello Loder, David. Tell me what the BSA has done. 7 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 3: Well, we only know because the platform has actually released it. 8 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 3: But they made a secret and principal decision that they 9 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 3: not only can censor and regulate traditional broadcasters, but people 10 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,919 Speaker 3: who broadcast over the Internet. And least be very clear, 11 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 3: if you read their decision, it means anyone who sends 12 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 3: audio or video over the Internet that's received by p one, 13 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 3: those are a mess of power grab done in secret. 14 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 3: And it's not the way he irritates. Is there an 15 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 3: issue around who regulates and content? Yeah, government's had twenty 16 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 3: reviews on this. You know, the way you normally do 17 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 3: is mchlver policy discussion, green paper white, but you change 18 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,560 Speaker 3: the law. But here the BA has just in secret 19 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 3: said no, we've decided we can now regulate you. So 20 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 3: I think this is going to back. 21 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 2: Let me just ask you how this isn't there a 22 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: Broadcasting Standards Authority law that tells them what like where 23 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 2: their remit starts and ends. 24 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 3: It does, and it talks about where you send a 25 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 3: program over the radio waves or similar telecommunication device, and 26 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 3: that can be picked up by a device designed from 27 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 3: what they've basically said is, well, we think the Internet 28 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 3: is a telecommunications device and anyone with a mobile phone 29 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 3: is there, and it's clearly not the case when the 30 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 3: Broadcasting It was written, they clearly did not have the Internet. Mind. 31 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 3: We know this too because the government has had numerous 32 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 3: reviews talking about how the Internet isn't covered by the 33 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 3: Broadcasting Act. But now the BSA and secret have this 34 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 3: so oh, actually no, we think it is. 35 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 2: I love the BSA every day. I just love them more. 36 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: Hey Jack, on the subject of broadcasting and stuff, How 37 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: good are the new rules? You guys are able to 38 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 2: start playing ads during your program on a Sunday morning. 39 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 4: Ah, it's going to single handily turn around the TV business, 40 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 4: I reckon. 41 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 3: Do you know what though? It is? 42 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 4: It's kind of funny for me because so we will 43 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 4: cas Q and A on Sunday Mornings live and at 44 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 4: the moment we have those like little ninety second long 45 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 4: station promos. But if you have four minute ads, it 46 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 4: actually means I get less time talking and less time interviewing, 47 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 4: which I'm not actually like as thrilled about as you 48 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 4: might imagine. 49 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: Nah, No, you don't need to do that. You can 50 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: just cut one of fenn Owen's packages. 51 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 3: No, I would never do that. 52 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 4: That'd be There'd be the absolute last thing I would cut. 53 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: Well, then you're going. But on the bright side, you've 54 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: got enough time now to pop out for a quickly 55 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: we you know, make a cup of tea, do stuff 56 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: like that which you haven't had a chance to do. 57 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 4: That's true, Yeah, yeah, I know A thousand small vile 58 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 4: and play with us Struggling TV presented on Sunday Morning. 59 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 2: In any case, you guys need the money. 60 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 4: We do need the money. I just don't know that 61 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,399 Speaker 4: it's going to be enough to turn things around. I'm 62 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 4: not sure that nobody a huge no, I know, but 63 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 4: in the you know, with a huge shadow of Google 64 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 4: and Facebook looming over the New Zealand broadcasting sector, I 65 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 4: don't know that our Sunday Morning ads and Christmas is 66 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 4: going to turn things around that much. 67 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 3: Maybe no help. 68 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 2: It'll help, David. This is one of those things you 69 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 2: have to wander. I mean like once upon a time 70 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 2: it would have made sense, but you have to wonder. 71 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 2: Help in God's name, it last to till twenty twenty five. 72 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 3: I know, there's so many archaic laws. You know, it's 73 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 3: amazing it wasn't repealed early. It is Jack case. It 74 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 3: will make very little financial difference, but it just was. 75 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 3: There were a good reason to keep it, and the 76 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 3: answer is no. Hopefully, what sensible broadcasters will do is say, 77 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 3: we still want to have fifty minutes of Jack on 78 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 3: the air, so we'll make it a sixty five minute 79 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 3: program rather than the Actually. 80 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: Jack, how do you feel about that? 81 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 3: Again? And yeah, exactly, I mean give the people why 82 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 3: they weren't they David? You know? 83 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,119 Speaker 4: N Yeah? 84 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: Now, Jack, can I ask you a question. Is it 85 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 2: true that Q and A broadcasts on a Sunday morning? 86 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: Because there are no ads? No, why does it broadcast 87 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 2: on a Sunday morning? I think to punish you. 88 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 4: No, I actually I actually preferred Sunday mornings because for 89 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 4: a couple of reasons. So I think when they originally 90 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 4: did it, it was modeled off overseas versions which had 91 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 4: public policy programs on Sunday mornings. The reason I actually 92 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 4: like having it on Sunday mornings personally is that it 93 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 4: fits quite elegantly into the political week, and that if 94 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 4: you think about when cabinet meets, think about post cabin insence, 95 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 4: you think when policies are announced and things, it gives 96 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 4: us a kind of a bit of a bit of 97 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 4: space to consider what's happened in the week and try 98 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 4: and take a kind of bird's eye view. So I'm 99 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 4: quite happy with it. I mean, I haven't had a 100 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 4: rowdy Saturday night in about ten years. Anyway. 101 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you we hold before your time. All right, We'll 102 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 2: take a break, come back talk about politics in a minute. 103 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: The huddle with New Zealand Southeby's International Realty. Find your 104 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: one of a kind. 105 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 2: Right back on the huddle with us, we have David Farah, 106 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 2: Jack Tame Jack. Now this Marti party business. How does 107 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: this end? Do you think they just break a past? 108 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 4: I certainly think it's extremely likely, given just how acrimonious 109 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 4: things have been over the last few days. I mean, 110 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 4: I mean, I can't imagine, given that email the other nights, 111 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 4: that there's going to be any sort of daytime when 112 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 4: it comes to some members of the party and the 113 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 4: Kupa King family. There could be wrong on that front, 114 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 4: but I can't see it turning around. And I mean 115 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 4: it just you know, it's pretty extraordinary really you consider 116 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 4: what's gone through the House this week. We've just had 117 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 4: the Maria and Coastal Areas Act brought forward in the 118 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 4: House for you know, what was essentially a legislation that 119 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 4: you know was the genesis of Triparty Mardi and instead 120 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 4: of focusing on offering meaningful opposition to that, instead you 121 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 4: have their MPs at six and seven's bickering away, you know. 122 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 4: And if anyone thought that would be going into next 123 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 4: year's election without having questions about whether or not to 124 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 4: party Mardy would be a reliable governing partner, I mean, 125 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 4: this is this is pretty extraordinary. I mean, I think 126 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 4: it is going to be the question for Chris Hopkins 127 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 4: in the in the immediate. 128 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 2: Future, David, do they break apart. 129 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 3: That they really have to lot The email they out 130 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 3: was designed to destroy their MP's reputation. So there's no 131 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 3: way you can see that she is going to be 132 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 3: a candidate for them at next election. 133 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 2: What happens in the interim. I mean maybe not even 134 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 2: parkou de Feris. But what happens in the interim? Can 135 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 2: they hobble along for another years as a collective party 136 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 2: or do those two have to break apart. 137 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,479 Speaker 3: I think that's quite possible that they'll break apart before 138 00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 3: the election. Might not necessarily be be two to or 139 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 3: it could even be three to three, because it's not 140 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 3: just about the MPs, it's about what the electorates are 141 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 3: are goin to do. 142 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 2: There's going to be the third David. 143 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 3: Well who's not a co leader or not a new. 144 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 2: MP Hannah Raft MP Clark. 145 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 3: Yes, so I would watch there very carefully. 146 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: I think you might. 147 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 4: It would be interesting though, because because they can of 148 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 4: course be waker jumps, right even if they're one electric seat, 149 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 4: there can be waker jump technically. But the question would 150 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 4: be whether or not if they split they to party. 151 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 4: Marty would be game for a by election and someone 152 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 4: like to tie Tolkido, given I think there'd be no 153 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 4: guarantees as to the result of that, especially after after you. 154 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 2: Know the about by elections. 155 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's it's unlikely, but it's not inconceivable. 156 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 2: Anything can happen. 157 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 4: Jack, But I mean this is the thing, right, you know, 158 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 4: electric MPs can be waker jump. 159 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: So yeah, now, David Listen I had a chat to 160 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 2: Barry about this earlier. There is a problem when you 161 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 2: start talking about things like is happening with Chris lux 162 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 2: about who's going to succeed and you've got polls saying 163 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 2: it's going to be Chris Bishops and stuff like that, that 164 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 2: it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. Is he in dangerous territory? 165 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 3: Yet he's not. But the fact someone did a poll 166 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 3: is the story. The actual result was most people don't 167 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 3: have a view. Basically, oh, sixteen percent ahead of twelve 168 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 3: percent doesn't mean anything, but the media have obviously decided 169 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 3: or in this case the post that you know, there's 170 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 3: enough grumblings that Sole run a pole and it does 171 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 3: partly become itself selling prophecy. The really here is when 172 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 3: Jasindra Doing and John Key, we're prime ministers, know when 173 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 3: ran polls about who you want to succeed them, Because 174 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 3: it's ridiculous. I still don't think it changes in any way. 175 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 3: The basic logic, which is you're crazy to consider changing 176 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 3: your leader your first term in government. It's never been done, 177 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 3: has never worked at, but it's unhelpful. The great saving 178 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 3: grace though in Jexta is tipahi mai because not only 179 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 3: will be scaring people off the left as such a 180 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 3: great distraction for the government. 181 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: Sadly, what do you reckon? 182 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 3: Jay? 183 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, when it comes to speculation about a leader, 184 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 4: I'm kind of of the put up or shut up 185 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 4: camp and that I think, like it's just kind of 186 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 4: sometimes it can honestly be a bit of. 187 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 3: A lazy media narrative like, oh, here we go watching 188 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 3: these polls. 189 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 4: You know, a long way out from an election and 190 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 4: a prime ministers and as popular as it might be, 191 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 4: that being said, clearly there is a sense of, you know, 192 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 4: a wide sprints of dissatisfaction with the economy at the moment, 193 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 4: which I think is directly linked to National's popularity. In particular, 194 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 4: Christopher Luxon hasn't enjoyed the same levels of support that 195 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 4: ar Dern, Key and even Clark enjoyed, and really in 196 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 4: a way he kind of represents a bit of a 197 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 4: change from those prime ministers who occupied the office for 198 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 4: multiple terms in that he isn't a huge force of personality, 199 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 4: you know, for the most part, if you think back 200 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 4: to whether it was Clark or Key or a Dern, 201 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 4: that those governments were led by really big personalities. They 202 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,079 Speaker 4: might have been polarizing, but they were big personalities. And 203 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 4: don't know that you'd put lucks in a net category. 204 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 2: And so yeah, okay, thanks guys, good to talk to you, Jack, 205 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 2: Dame Devia ferre Huddle this evening. 206 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: For more from Hither Duplessy Allen Drive, listen live to 207 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: news talks it'd be from four pm weekdays, or follow 208 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: the podcast on iHeartRadio
